One thing your making a convincing argument against, is the selective 
discontinuance of trains. The axeing of the "Pioneer" hurts other trains too. 
One 
think Amtrak never quite figured out. If you killed the Capital Limited 
tomorrow, 
numbers on trains like the Chief or the Silver Meteor would be noticeably 
lower.

And yes 80% of a trains business comes from cities outside of the endpoints. 
Try buying a plane ticket from Hastings, NE to Grand Junction, CO
